Gainsight Sr Corporate Events Manager at Gainsight manages planning and execution of multiple corporate events including Pulse conferences, trade shows, and virtual events. The role involves budget and vendor management, cross-functional collaboration, and reporting event impact using AI-assisted workflows.

Responsibilities

We’re looking for a full-time Sr Corporate Events Manager to join our Marketing team, reporting to the Director of Corporate Events. This is a remote role based in the United States.
Lead assigned programs end to end, owning the plan, the timeline, and the results, and bringing in partners and vendors as needed to deliver.
Own planning and execution of assigned flagship events, coordinating session content, speakers, venues, logistics, internal communications, and on-site production.
Run trade shows and the quarterly virtual event series, using and improving documented playbooks so execution does not depend on any one person.
Manage logistics and delivery for internal programs such as Revenue Kickoff, Quarterly Company Meetings, and more. Both in-person and virtual.
Manage event budgets, contracts, and agency and vendor relationships, tracking spend against plan and reporting variances.
Partner with Demand Generation, Sales, Customer Success, and Campaign Managers on promotion, registration goals, and follow-up from invite through post-event.
Track attendance, pipeline, and retention results for each event, report on event impact to senior stakeholders, and build AI-assisted workflows that reduce manual operational work.
This is not a complete list of responsibilities, and the scope of the role may evolve with the needs of the team and business. This role will require travel to events, concentrated around our flagship and peak event windows.
